Research Abstract |
Relationship between ischemia time and rejection of transplanted allograft was assessed using Rat composite tissue allo-transplantation model. As the result, clinical observation, histopathological examination and mixed lymphocyte reaction assay revealed that prolonged ischemia increases severity of rejection in skin flap allotransplantation. Higher expression of MHC-II antigen in longer ischemia group might cause these results.
